I was on their site and looks like they have 1.99% financing :notbad:

You need to live somewhere that you can actually enjoy this car.

Driving a fast car slow is actually such a shitty feeling, because everytime you get behind the wheel you have to seriously restrain your urges to just go psycho behind the wheel! Like when the engine is so smooth and that place where like 3500-4000 RPM where the engine is JUST starting to hit that magic resonance that hits you right in the testosterone and all you have to do is flick your right foot down and the whole car will roar... fuuuuuuck!

That's kind of why driving a slow car fast is thrilling, because you can embrace the urge to speed and all laws won't be broken within 2-3 seconds...

I haven't really researched much into c8. But just under $100k for the base one seems very reasonable. Brand New car + super car looks. Considering a gr, golf r, type r, let alone type s is already easy $70000.

But then it also falls into LC and gtr money. But then those won't be 1.99%. let's see how bad this recession gets.

There's a couple youtube videos of guys tracking them at COTA. The power seems actually quite usable.

^ Looked like 60 mph to 140 in like 5 seconds, haha...

See what I mean about how unfun this car would be in basically any city driving and most B.C. highways?!

Now the Coquihalla would be quite spicy in spots...

I saw a new Z06 driving doing the Wharf St in downtown Victoria in front of Bastion Square the other day (the typical show-off cruise route, in front of The Local & Darcy's pubs' patios), it was crazy it just wasn't turning anyone's heads (except for mine lol).

Better off getting a sportbike. You can go psycho anytime and it be more discreet. lol
